When To Go
Venezuela’s tourist season runs year-round however be sure to consider the climate and local holidays before finalizing your travel plans. Venezuela has a dry season that starts in late November and ends in early May and a wet season that lasts the rest of the year. The dry season is certainly more pleasant for some tourists, particularly those looking to do some hiking or other outdoor activities. Some sights however, such as waterfalls, are actually more impressive in the wet season. Angel Falls for instance is absolutely spectacular after heavy rains in the wet months, but may be little more than a thin ribbon of water in the dry season. Furthermore, the falls can often be inaccessible by boat in dry months.
Venezuelans absolutely love traveling to visit family, friends and the beach over the holiday seasons. Christmas through till mid-January, Carnaval which starts several days prior to Ash Wednesday and Semana Santa or Holy Week; the week before Easter Sunday. These periods are really colorful and alive with a host of festivities, but you may need to plan ahead for accommodation and transport.
